Description

Quaking aspen is a species of trees that often propagates through its roots to form large, clonal colonies that all share a single root system. In this game, you will play as an aspen tree, spreading its roots to grow clones in order to become the best grove of Quaking Aspens.

The active player rolls all three dice and then claims one of those dice. The player to their left will then claim one of the remaining two dice. All other players (if any) will use the final die.
Each player will then use their die value to connect a leaf to another, already circled leaf (or the start leaf). They will do this by finding a solid path containing their die value leading from a circled leaf to another leaf, drawing a line over the path, and circling the new leaf.
Each time a player circles a leaf, they gain the benefit of that leaf, which will either be a bonus or a scoring opportunity. These benefits will be tracked on your tracking mat.
The game will be played in rounds, with all players taking simultaneous turns, until a single player has reached any 4 of the goal leaves. All players will finish the current round and then proceed to scoring.
